Getting IComponent interface of Repository Manager

Question

Hello everybody,
I need to enumerate all file system repositories using the CM Configuration Framework API, because i need the physical paths of each file system in order to create them if they don't exist yet. Unfortunately the repository framework API doesn't help in this case since it doesn't return repositories if the physical path does not exist. I tried
ResourceFactory.getInstance().getManagerFactory().getRepositoryManager (repname);
This is <b>not</b> what i'm looking for.
I would like to have something like this.
     private IComponent getRepositoryManager(String repmanager_id)
          throws ComponentException {
          CrtSystem crt = CrtSystem.getInstance();
          ComponentUri uri =
               ComponentUri.getRootUri("cm").getChildUri(
                    "repository_manager").getChildUri(
                    repmanager_id);
          IComponent comp = crt.lookupComponentByUri(uri);
          return comp;
I don't know what i have to pass as repmanager_id. Maybe the class name?
I tried to enumerate the child's of the URI crt://cm/repository_manager but it does not return child's.
Does anyone have an idea how i can get the repository_managers and later on the corresponding repositories?
Thank's a lot in advance for any help on this
best regards
